Sorry I only just saw American sizing is all over the place like Australian sizing. I think a 10 US is about a 14 Australian. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925707 Sun, 05 May 2013 22:26:55 +0000 Anonymous 925707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Vicki, with a sniping program you decide in advance how much you're willing to bid on an item. &nbsp;You set up the "snipe" and the program swoops in during the auction's last few seconds and places the bid for you. &nbsp;That way you don't get into an emotional bidding war and you don't have to hang out watching the auction. &nbsp;There are a lot of these programs available for free. Hope that helps! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925702 Sun, 05 May 2013 22:10:15 +0000 Caro in Oz 925702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ :)&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925701 Sun, 05 May 2013 22:09:15 +0000 Mellllls 925701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ glad you made your decision and are happy with it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925699 Sun, 05 May 2013 22:05:27 +0000 Lyn D. 925699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I hope this works out for you Deborah!<br />FWIW I had not heard of this brand before, so it is probably lucky for you and has worked in your favour! Meant to be too as it is your size. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925689 Sun, 05 May 2013 21:55:05 +0000 Vicki 925689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Deborah, this is a beautiful obsession and I hope you won the bid!<br /><br />Alicat, what is a sniping program? &nbsp;I've never heard of that. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925480 Sun, 05 May 2013 14:17:38 +0000 lynne 925480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm glad you decided to go for it, its adorable! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925467 Sun, 05 May 2013 13:51:31 +0000 Anonymous 925467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Deborah, I always use a sniping program for eBay. &nbsp;That way you can work out your max bid without getting caught up in emotion and competition. &nbsp;The one I use is "justsnipe" but I'm sure there are others. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925460 Sun, 05 May 2013 13:48:25 +0000 ironkurtin 925460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yoox often (but not always) has complexgeometries on sale.&nbsp; Just FYI!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925431 Sun, 05 May 2013 12:52:17 +0000 Parsley 925431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Crossing my fingers that it works for you!<br />Welcome to the scary world of buying on Ebay! &nbsp;:-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925428 Sun, 05 May 2013 12:36:33 +0000 Jaime 925428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Agree that UK 14 is supposed to be a North American 10, agree that it is a great dress for you, and I don't think the label is well known enough to have inspired fakes, so I don't think you should be overly concerned. Can't wait to see it on! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925379 Sun, 05 May 2013 10:27:23 +0000 Deborah 925379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks for the feedback. &nbsp;After I completed the sale and noted the payment went to a company not an individual I started to question if I had just bought the genuine article but the seller has 100% positive feedback. &nbsp;Anyway, it should arrive some time next week, so we shall find out. &nbsp;I think I am just being neurotic though, as there is nothing really to suggest that it's not the real deal. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925377 Sun, 05 May 2013 10:19:22 +0000 Agnes 925377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think you got a good deal. And I think your sizing is correct too. Sure it will look beautiful on you.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925374 Sun, 05 May 2013 10:12:19 +0000 Raisin 925374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I love this label too, so I'm excited to see this on you. I can say US and Canadian sizing is the same, but I don't know how is label runs. I get the idea that the clothes are quite generous, but I haven't seen them. Can't wait to see it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925364 Sun, 05 May 2013 09:27:48 +0000 Anonymous 925364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Adda girl!

Seller hasn't got back re sizing. Is I'm taking a punt and assuming she has quoted the size on the tag which I would expect to be the US size:). I guess I can resell if I'm wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925357 Sun, 05 May 2013 07:44:43 +0000 Caro in Oz 925357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ DHs&nbsp;strategy is good. &nbsp;I either wait till the last minute&nbsp;or decide my maximum put in the bid &amp; forget about it:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-press-the-bid-button#post-925356 Sun, 05 May 2013 07:16:12 +0000 Deborah 925356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks Caro!

SO... I found one of the dresses on Ebay (AUST) and it ends in 1 hour.</p> <p>It almost new, my size, postage is $8.00 and she is asking only $70.00.  It retails around $150.00 - $175.  And there are no bids at this stage.  I find it hard to believe that it wont go crazy at the last minute but I am not sure this label is all that well known here.</p> <p>The beauty of these peices is that they can drape this way and that and can be worn numerous ways.</p> <p>It seems like a no brainer but Im having trouble pressing that 'Bid Now" button.</p> <p>What would you do?</p> <p>xxx Deborah</p> <p>WOULD SOMEONE BE ABLE TO CONFIRM FOR ME THAT A US SIZE 10 IS AN AUST SIZE 14. AND IS CANADIAN AND US SIZING THE SAME? </p>
